Author with Narrator
in recording studio, Burbank, CA
"An excellent book beautifully performed - Great writing, wonder imagery, elaborate descriptive detail in every chapter, with excellent reading by Emily O'Brien whose voice captures every nuance of the little Mandy, of Claire, of Althea, and of Sarah. I greatly enjoyed listening to this book. 5 stars (out of 5)."-an Audible customer.
"Narrator Emily O'Brien credibly portrays a woman with a tenuous grasp on reality . . . .O'Brien's performance of Claire and her real and imaginary daughters is appropriately disturbing. Her chillingly normal narration of Lynne McKelvey's original, provocative plot and Claire's frightening plunge into mental illness will keep listeners guessing until the thrilling conclusion.” Read the entire AudioFile review here.
